It is estimated wedding gifts
How Goujian sword of the ruler landed in the tomb of Yue Chu, mystery until now can not be revealed. Estimated Qianwen Wan: "State of the Wu and Yue Chu had fought several times.'s Possible King of Chu was then presented the sword to one of his high officials beliefs."
Meanwhile, another point of view assumes that of the bamboo roller (red.: the days before the invention of paper using bamboo as a medium roller / pad) that were unearthed from the tomb shows, there remains the possibility of the nobility during the time ruler named Chu Shao Hua Huaiwang so the possibility of switching to the sword Goujian Chu State through a wedding gift items.
As per the record book of ancient history, relations between the two countries since the time of Chu and Yue Yun Chang (Yue ruler) already familiar, they never allied to a period, the ruler of Chu Chu Zhaowang never marry Goujian daughter as his concubine and gave birth to Chu Huiwang.
Therefore, sophisticated bronze sword was made possible as a wedding gift items and as such his daughter had changed hands to the State of Chu, and then present it to the authorities Chu Shao Hua. After Shao Hua's death, the sword buried in his grave participate.

Three Causes, Sword not rusty
Sword of King Yue Goujian been through the hall for 2,000 years, but had shown no signs of rust. What causes it not to rust? Experts think, it was primarily made possible by the sword circumstances are saved.
Qianwen Wan explains, the copper content of about 80-83% Goujian sword, 16-17% lead content, but it also contained a small amount of lead and iron. Copper as a major part of the bronze sword that was kind of a non-active metals, the situation everyday conditions is not easily corroded.
Second, off-site conditions Goujian sword: Tomb buried under the ground a few feet deep, a hole filled with two coffins, tomb wall around the hole using some sort of white mud with fine quality solid, called the world of archeology as a white paste of mud plaster, the bottom using white pasta sludge was washed and screened manually, excellent adhesive power.

Plus the top of the hole tomb filled with solid ground, the factors that make it almost becomes a tomb chamber airtight, watertight so many layers that have basically seals the tomb with the atmosphere of the outdoors. Modern science and technology research states: under conditions of total sealed from oxygen, even in the liquid water or acid water, iron and steel will not rust.
In addition, Chu tomb at Mount no.1 Wang located above dry embankment of the river near the city of Jinzhou Zhang modern, underground water level is rather high, the tomb in the long term also been submerged by water, the acidic nature of groundwater is not large, basically tend to be neutral, as evidenced by a large number of equipment / artifacts coated paint timber with a beautiful state storage rather well. After submerged underground water, the air inside the tomb also shrunk a lot.
Regarding the sword Goujian is still as sharp as when dug out, Wan Qianwen stated: "after that never again do such a test.
